Kraft Kitchens Tips

Place 1 of the cooled cake layers on serving plate. Make 2-inch horizontal cut around side of cake, using long serrated knife. Cut all the way through cake layer to make 2 layers. Remove top layer by sliding it onto 9-inch round cardboard circle. Frost cake layer on plate with 1/3 of the COOL WHIP mixture. Slide top half of split cake layer from cardboard circle onto frosted layer on plate. Place the remaining unsplit cake layer on a cutting board. Cut into 2 layers as done for the first layer. Repeat process of transferring cake layers to stacked cake layers on plate using the cardboard circle.

Substitute

Omit caramel sauce. Microwave 10 KRAFT Caramels and 1 Tbsp. milk in microwaveable bowl on HIGH 2 min. or until caramels begin to melt. Stir until caramels are completely melted. Drizzle over cake just before serving; top with nuts.

made recipe as directed. Everyone raved, 1 of my quests said they like it better than pumpkin pie. I did not take much time and was very easy. 5 stars.

This cake was a HUGE hit. I made this for our get together at the lake this weekend and everyone loved it and asked for the recipe. Easy to make and so delicious! Only change I made was that I didn't have pumpkin spice so I added the cinnamon,cloves,nutmeg and ginger that I usually use in a pumpkin pie. Thanks so much for sharing this recipe!!

I haven't made this cake yet (looks yummy!) but have made other 4 layer cakes... forget using a knife to split the layers, NIGHTMARE, I used (not kidding) dental floss. Wrapped it around the outside of the cake, you can kind of push it in a bit so it's tight, and then pull the two ends together (kind of like you are tying a ribbon on a package) firmly and not too slowly. The floss will slice through the center beautifully.

Delicious! I've made this in the past, and it's always went over well. This year, my husband requested this cake for his birthday. Instead of making a 4 layer cake, I made 2 2-layer cakes. It still tasted great, and was easier to serve to a larger crowd.

My sister and I made this last year for Thanksgiving dessert, and though ours came out a little lopsided, we (and many of our family members) have been eagerly awaiting fall to make it again! This is the perfect autumn treat!
